talmoon/spring lake info

[smurfy]

thanks BMC. headed that way the weekend of the 14th. get your buck???????? sounds as though from the weather forecast it may make a bit of ice next weekend.

[smurfy]

looks as though you guys are in for another weather event next couple days before some bitter cold air comes in.

[snowfighter]

We are in the bulls eye 12+ inches when it done on wednsday. That should fix the lakes up good for awhile!

[smurfy]

snowfighter keep me posted/updated. I need to know if an ATV is in order or snowmobile for the weekend of the 14th!!!!

[snowfighter]

0K, about 2+ inches and still snowing as of now.

[smurfy]

thanks!!!!!!!!!!! might have to give the plow guy a call. know him??? he's the next place up from the old farm.

[snowfighter]

You mean farm top of hill by spring lake store?

[smurfy]

yep. the one with all the stuff around. let me go further, remember the old farm bar that rocky use to run, the next place west of there.

[snowfighter]

Yep remember the farm way before Rocky owned it, the first one Ted Johnson. The person west of there is Steve Boggs218=832-3028

[smurfy]

YEP THATS THE GUY. steve.

oh the good old days when big ted owned the farm!!!!!! didn't know that was his last name. I was only a rug rat back then but that was our Friday nite trip up to the farm to get drinkin water in the ole milkcan. oh the memories.

a guy named norm had it for a while too! now those two where a piece of work.

[snowfighter]

Ted Blum was the big guy he bought it after Ted Johnson who started the Farm. there was one owner after that before Rocky can't remember his name but he built the big addition on. After Rocky there was one more last name Sulterland (spelling) then it burnt.

[smurfy]

I remember ted blum. and norm was the guy after rocky!!!

you ever visit the cedar lake lodge west of there on cedar lake when mike Weiss owned it??? he passed away couple years ago.

[snowfighter]

Was there a couple times in the 80's I think thats who there. First wave of snow stopped about hour ago. Theres between 3 and 4 inches so far fine compact snow. Forecast 2-4 tonite 3-5 tomorrow.

[smurfy]

thanks for the snow info. yea that would be about the time frame. the shears gang also hung out there. mike had a wife and 2 daughters! good dude!

[smurfy]

my biggest question when this is all said and done is if a wheeler will still work for on the lake!!!!!

[Pinusbanksiana]

The lakes are going to be a slushy mess after this snowfall then the freeze.

[Gus]

What are you guys getting for snow totals so far?

[snowfighter]

About 10" and suppose to get another 5 to 11 today and night.Snowing good as I email.

BOO-HOO!!!!!!

THANKS FOR THE INFO.

have you heard of any ice thickness reports for some of the small lakes. I have heard of up to 6-7 inches on the south and west side of Winnie. so that pretty much means the particular lake I be interested in should have close to a foot. based on many years of past experiences.

All I have heard is Bowstring shore line has 6" don't know about farther out and the south end of Big Jessie about the same. There was a couple spear houses out there on the weekend.

[smurfy]

I am getting way pumped to get up there fishing, but this snow and wind coming in is making me real nervous. don't know if a 4 wheeler will be useable. its sure is nice to us wheeler and snowmobile trailer to haul things in and off the lake.

and then depending on what weather forecast one listens to that blow zero dump could still hang around.

[snowfighter]

If we get wind it may help the bigger lakes for drifting and packing so you can pick your way around but not the small ones as much. I would bet anything there is some flooding on top of the ice going on.

[smurfy]

depends on what direction the wind will come from. for some reason wind blown snow, regardless of direction seems to land on the lake right in front of the cabin.

[Pinusbanksiana]

You can forget the 4wheeler. That game is over in this country as of this afternoon. We are getting pounded.

where EXACTLY you located. not impressed hearing that at all.

[Pinusbanksiana]

Near Talmoon

[smurfy]

Near Talmoon

cool!!!!!!!!! we are by spring lake!!!!

[Pinusbanksiana]

cool!!!!!!!!! we are by spring lake!!!!

I would estimate 15 inches of snow so far. No wheeler will go through that. Lakes are showing plenty of water on top of the ice already. Don't think this will let up until midnight.

[smurfy]

adding insult to injury!!! dang nabit!

thanks for the info really helps in planning. looks like loading sleds instead of wheeler.
